I was a golf caddy at Shoreacres back in 1963 and 1964 when I was 13 and 14 years old. Dad was in the Navy and we were just a fence away from the Mansions and golf course. I'd usually walk down to the lake and up the beach and then climb the bluff to get there. Caddy master was John Lupiano and I'd always check in with him the same way, "I need a Loop Lupiano...". Back then they paid $3.50 a bag and with a double in the morning and the afternoon and tips... I'd go home with close to $20.

This is what Seth Rayner has done with Shoreacres!

I came to here to see an eclipse. The sun was rising while part of it was blocked by the moon. Awesome!

Great track, not for high handicappers though. Very fast greens, no fringe so lots of run offs to spots you don't want to be. Caddie a must as important to hit right spots on fairways and the greens.
